Five-Year-Old Blue Ivy Featured On Father Jay-Z's New Album

Five-year-old Blue Ivy Carter just upstaged her father on his own album with a very impressive freestyle rap.

This morning, Jay-Z officially dropped his critically acclaimed new album 4:44, which has already gone platinum since its early release on Tidal last week.

There has been a great deal of buzz over the album, but now talk has turned to the rapper's daughter, who is featured on the bonus track "Blue's Freestyle/We Family."

Considering the young rapper's age, her delivery is particularly impressive. And we aren't at all surprised, considering who her parents are.

Since the track was released, the internet has exploded with positive reactions, some calling for a BET nomination, others struggling to interpret Blue Ivy's ambiguous lyrics.

This isn't the first time Blue has appeared in her famous parents' work. In 2016, she was featured in Beyonce's "Formation" music video.

Whether or not Blue Ivy's newborn siblings, Rumi and Sir, will follow in her family's musical footsteps remains to be seen. In the meantime, we are excited to see what direction Blue's career will take next.
